I loooove the color I got: Toffee Cream. Very Mod yet modern. I've been trying to find it since it ran out. Too bad it's discontinued, beautiful colors.

Blush -The Body Shop - Cheek Colour- 01 Blush Pink
mezza9 1/22/2007 10:02:00 PM
I love the color. It goes very well with my skin. I'm Asian with fair skin and slight pink undertone. The only problem is that I find it hard to gauge how much to put on. One brush stroke is too light and two strokes is too much. Oh and packaging is atrocious.

Powder -Biotherm - Touch Soft Radiant Compact Foundation

Amazing. Although Biotherm suggests that this should be used only for normal/combo skin, I still use it (I have very dry skin). The results are no-less than amazing. No cake. No clumps on my dry skin. In reply to the comment below, the two sided brush won't make a difference unless you use water. Dab the softer/furry side of the brush into a bit of water and the powder would feel more like a cream foundation. I suggest anyone who buys this to use this method of application. It blends and looks much better.

Eyeliner -Bonne Bell - Eye Definer in Soft Black

Too good for words. I love it. I don't even need to use eyeshadows with this liner because it's so soft that I could use my finger to smudge it to create a smokey effect. While I was at Biotherm in the dept store, the make up artists told me that they really liked the way I did my eyes! :)

Moisturizers -Clinique - Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel
mezza9 1/22/2007 8:43:00 PM
HORRENDOUS FOR PEOPLE WITH DRY SKIN. Thank God I got a tester before buying the actual product. Within 3 days, I had zits on my cheek area (and I'm the type that never has zits). I suggest people find out what causes your dry skin before purchasing any moisturizer. For me, my skin doesn't produce enough water and compensates with over-production of oil. So I have horribly dry cheeks but oily T-zone. If you have the same problem stay away from this product. Find something that restores balance to your skin rather than one that tries to compensate for the lack of hydration.

Moisturizers -Biotherm - Aquasource Non Stop (Dry Skin)
mezza9 1/22/2007 8:38:00 PM
Extremely good moisturizer. When I first came to Canada, my face was peeling and flaking - horrendously. I tried the a few moiturizers from Body Shop, Nivea and Clinique. None of them had any effect. Then I tried Biotherm's Aquasource Non-Stop. I was amazed at the results. My skin was smooth and re-hydrated within 2 weeks. :) The very faint fragrance smells amazing and it works very well with the Biotherm line of foundations. Only problem is that once u stop using it your skin will go back to its original dry flaky state. :( I don't think it's a good moisturizer if you need a long-term solution to dry skin.
